Okay so let me take few more numbers to explain

Year 1
I am assuming
Let sales be $ 100,000
Opening Inventory $ 500,000
Purchases $ 100,000
Closing inventory $ 580,000
(this is given in first line of question)
Inventory Balance which should have been $ 530,000
(580000-530000)

Now we make a few calculations


Wrong
Inventory Balance $ 580,000
(This is clearly overstated because the actual balnce in balance sheet
should have been 530)000 but we have shown 580000

Cost of goods sold Wrong


Opening Inventory $ 500,000
Add:Purchases $ 100,000
Less:Closing inventory balance $ (580,000)
Cost of goods sold $ 20,000
(As you can see if take 580000 as our inventory balance my cost of goods
sold is understated)

Net Income Wrong


Sales $ 100,000
Less:Cost of goods sold $ (20,000)
Net Income $ 80,000
(Again you can see that if we take 580000 as our inventory
balance net income is overstated and hence the retained earnings is overstated)

This whole process is done for year 1

now for year 2 because your corrected opening inventory balance will be 530000
your cost of goods sold will be higher than year 1 (overstated)
and hence net income will be less (understated)

For any more information or clarification please comment
